due 10 p.m. 9/20Continue reviewing sentence types and find some examples in James Joyce's "Grace," in the packet. Find examples of four distinct types - i.e., not variations on the same setence structure. If you can't find them in Joyce, look back at other readings, or - indeed - anywhere. It's just practice thinking in terms of sentence structure. Please read "Grace." Begin with "far reading": that is, general and brief remarks on the impression, thematic concern, and style of the story. Then zero in on a passage, reading it using various tools: grammar, voice, tone, lexicon (diction), styles of cohesion (repetition), sonic effects (alliteration and assonance)... The passage need not be long - paragraph length. Be ready to talk about your blog post in class.
